Above my heads mighty men battle Flashing blades rip through the air Cracking shields with rumbling thunder Rolling over the waves
Blood pours like rain onto the sea As it wind-whipped foams Warlords in shining helmets Send men screaming to their death
Clouds of black cover the sea Day turns into night Infinite darkness beckons me No more sun, no more light
Ships tied stern to stern A battle on the north sea waves Hearts of braves brightly burn Berserks swing their metal-blades
Battle hammers hit with force Crushing helmet covers heads Dying men tumble over board Foaming waves colored red
Memories invade my mind As my harness brings me down
My body's getting cold and numb As the ocean pulls me down
Above my head my brave friends battle Their flashing blades rip through the air Sending men screaming to join me As I die in these cold north sea waves
